Concept explainers
Interpretation:
A complete, detailed mechanism is to be drawn that accounts for the given product. It is also to be explained why the carbocation rearrangement is favorable.
Concept introduction:
An
The carbocation formed in the first step can rearrange to another one as a result of resonance (delocalization) if it is adjacent to a double or triple bond. A
